EN: filthiness, piggishness, obscenity
This is a catch-all term for anything gross, disgusting, or morally filthy. A corrupt politician's actions? Kababuyan. Someone eating like they haven't seen food in a year? Kababuyan. That R-18 scene your parents walked in on? Definitely kababuyan. Sorry, baboy, you did not deserve this.
From `ka-` + `baboy` (pig) + `-an` (suffix denoting an act or place characterized by the root).
ROOT MEANING: pig, pork
A very strong and negative term. Can refer to physical messiness, rude behavior, corruption, or lewd acts.
